Dengue is known as an endemic disease of tropical and subtropical regions. It was considered a disease very frequent on kids, but recently an increase was reported on adult people. Some of these cases were related to pregnant women, for that reason, we decided to check eight cases, including just the mothers who presented dengue virus infection through ELISA IgM. IgG and ELISA IgM studies. Five products were determined between 3 and 9-born-babies. Eight cases of dengue were analyzed during pregnancy, three cases of fever dengue and five cases of hemorrhagic dengue; main complications detected were threat of abortion, and premature labour, postsurgical bleeding with desiccant haematoma of uterine artery, oligohydramnios, as well as pleural effusion, two of the neonates were classified as septic for presenting fever. In no case, IgG or IgM for fever dengue was detected in neonates.
